Melissa and Tony's wedding had the feeling of home...I loved it! But my favorite part about the whole thing was the speech the father gave...I know I won't do it justice but I will try because it's a great story and soooo true. He began by talking about how him and his wife did not have lots of money when they were starting a family...and went on to say how even though they didn't his wife tried to make the best of everything...his example was one that was both funny and a great example for anyone...She had been preparing a special dinner for the two of them all day...it was to be an intimate dinner by candle light and they were going to use fine china they had received from their wedding. Only problem was they had no table to eat on...so the wife decided to get creative and use an ironing board with a pretty table cloth on it. Everything was all set and they went to sit down and eat when somehow the ironing board gave way and the food went flying! The point of the story is of all the meals she has ever made that was the most disastrous, they had the least amount of possessions, and yet it was the most memorable and best meal they ever had. Life does not have to be perfect to be great and money does not always make things better...this is so true!!!! Of all our memories together (besides the ones with Brooklyn) most of them involve something funny that did not go to plan! Ironically at the end of the night their getaway car broke down…they left in a cute little jeep…hopefully a memory they won’t forget!
